Chapter 212 - Let Me Buy It!
"What frustrates me is that I am almost late to discover about Liam Huo. I have been thinking now… How if I never had the chance to learn that someone is pursuing you and this person is dangerous? How if I am too late and he already took you away from me? Then, he's actually the one who messed up with my divorce!"
It does anger him. And he would take part to blamed himself even if Bruce is also keeping a secret from him.
Vince frees Hailey from his arms to look at her beautiful face that slowly comes back to its natural pinkish color. He raised one arm to rubbed her cheek.
"However, I will probably chase you even if it's the end of the world, nor even if it is in the depths of Hell. I will definitely take you back."
Hailey wipes the tears that escape from her eyes. She tiptoed a little to reach Vince's lips and placed a sweet kiss. Her eyes remained close as she breathed and immersed herself inside Vince's warm embrace. She replied to that,
"I want us to have a heart-to-heart talk. Can you take me away without my knight's knowledge? They would keep following me around until they made sure I was out of danger and apprehended everyone. Liam is not alone. He gathers some alliances in P Country. And since they have their grudge against you, we can't stay at ease yet."
Vincent smiled, lovingly staring at the girl in his arms. She is undoubtedly intelligent, as well as a cunning woman if you want to measure her capability. He already witnessed that in these passing months, when they were acting as a fake couple. And ever since they were officially in a relationship, she keeps impressing him.
But, on the one hand, this is a red light flaring up on top of his head, reminding him he must be careful not to mess up with her, or else her knight would chase him to death; moreover, she'll handle him with her own hands.
Now he wants to thank his mom for being so strict with him. If ever that he turned into a playboy?
He probably has to watch his buddy. He could picture Hailey cracking it. And what's worse is she smashes it with a sledgehammer.
Ah, no. He believes Hailey could ideally aim the gun straight between his thighs.
'Mom, all of your nagging while I'm growing up has now paid off! I achieved the most precious treasure in the world! It is also worth paying the 3.5 million US dollars of jewelry set with my body. From now on, I have to work even harder to please this woman! Now I could relate to dad why he never dares to look at another woman. It's scary to imagine if my buddy saying bye-bye to the world!'
Hailey noticed his silence, but a silly smile was playing on his lips. She need not ask. Vince has something in mind, and she knew it was amusing.
"What were you thinking, hubby?" she asked afterward.
Vince instead brushed his mouth on her forehead before he answered. "Hm. I'm just thinking how lucky I am to reach a distant star like you."
"Silly. What's the drama now?" Hailey rubbed his chest as she mumbled flirtily at him. "Are you going to run away with me?" she asked afterward.
Vince chuckled at her seductive tone. "What are you saying? I so love to hide you from your knights. I can't wait to run away with you. I'm not afraid if your knights will chase me to death from kidnapping you today."
As Vince whispered huskily in her ear, she could feel the warmth of his breath on her skin that made her daze because of excitement. Looking at his deep dark brown pupils, she could not wait to be alone with him.
"Please, let's elope for today."
Hailey bites Vince's left ear; his eyes flash with excitement as she continues behaving like an alluring kitten inside his arms. So, this is definitely Hailey Hillson! The only woman who could stir his choosy heart every time she played naughtily.
In the past, he felt disgusted when a woman flirts with him, especially when that woman tried to touch him. He doesn't like that kind of woman who made the first move.
But when it comes to Hailey. He doesn't mind at all. He's even aroused if she's done that. She's the only one who can make him crazily, sexually hungry.
As he could not wait to be utterly alone with her, he gently cupped her right face.
"I will show you a secret," Vince murmurs on top of her lips; he then pulls her toward the restroom inside her office.
"What are we doing here?" she asked, as it confused her. How could they elope if they were hiding in the toilet room?
"Like what I told Liam Huo. I have secret rooms and passages in this building. I will make sure to build one. And only authorized personnel knew these secret rooms and passages."
Upon Vince saying that, he presses something on the bathroom wall inside a cabinet. Then, a door opens.
"What is it?" Hailey asked curiously, staring at the small room behind the door.
"It was more likely a panic room when a person attacked it. But it was a multi-purpose room." He closes the door, a red light automatically lit inside. "Inside, you will see a green light then. It will show you instructions on what to do."
Vince pointed to the wall were written the instruction as he talked about. Then Vince pushes on another door. It was only small but enough to go through.
"Let's go!"
There is a smile plastering on his lips while pulling her to the small door. They have to crawl it, but their escape would not be real if they pass through her knights' eyes.
She follows Vince until they reach the twenty-fifth floor; Vince pushes the door open and gets out. After getting out, she could see a narrower staircase. Then she saw an elevator. Vince explains to her that this building terrace was solidified for many purposes. If there is an earthquake, it will hold longer. And for the escape, the elevator will serve them well.
Vince clasped her hand as they entered the lift. She realized that this lift would only take them toward the 20th, 15th, 10th floors, the Ground floor, and the parking lot.
Hailey just followed Vince silently. She could now understand. If ever that Liam took over the entire building, Vince still has a way to get inside secretly. She bet her knights, the Interpol, and Brent's group took this elevator. They could go in and out of the building without the knowledge of the employees in this building.
Vince is truly a genius. This world is a blessing to have him with such talent. And she's also blessed that she found him.
"Hubby, you are so amazing."
"And I'll show you later how amazing I am." He whispered naughtily.
Hailey, pinch him on the waist, and she pouted. "I'm serious here, hubby! Although I also look forward to it."
She winked at him. And that playful smile on Hailey's lips breaks the thread of restraint he's struggling to control. He pulled Hailey into the corner and pinned her on the wall. He kissed her hungrily. His hands started traveling her waist upward to her back.
After the long kisses they've shared, both are panting and catching air to breathe. "Let's go, darling!"
Vince pulled her away toward the black car parked in the parking lot. She whistled upon seeing the beautiful car. She hasn't seen this one yet. She guessed Vince designed it and ordered it as personalized made.
"Am I thinking correctly?" she asked Vince, who nodded at her.
"I designed it and asked Montfort Motors to install the latest engine they've developed recently."
She's right! Madison mentioned that Lewey, her husband, developed the latest motor, and they are about to test the Super Fast Car soon. Madison knew how in love she is with all the fast cars globally, so these companies were constantly updating her.
And she was just thinking of purchasing one. But Vince already has it!
Hailey placed both her arms around Vince's neck and flirted. "Hubby, you have beaten me again!"
"I love to have one, but I might sell my design to earn extra money and sell this one away."
"What? Why? You aren't out of money, right?" She knew Vince would not just go bankrupt. But that question was playing on her head. Why is this man desperate to earn money?
Vince saw the confusion in her eyes. He chuckled, then explained to her. "I didn't know that you are Hailee Davies. So, I think that maybe fewer guests will be invited to our wedding even if it was a grand one. So I ordered this car. However, now? I have to save up as much money for our wedding. I dreamed of giving you the grandest wedding of the century. But first, I have to work hard, Wifey."
She could not believe that Vince was worried about that matter. Well, she does too, but she wants to help Vince to shoulder their wedding expenses. Of course, she doesn't mind. But she is sure that Vince does.
"Hubby… If you are going to sell your car. Let me buy it!"
